Advanced Players in Arc

"...All the construction over there are intelligent machines? Isn't the intelligence on the island too complete?"

"Absolutely. Otherwise, why do you think our construction speed is so fast? But there are also some engineers watching, and the intelligent machinery is not perfect."

"...It's great. It's so intelligent, so the vehicles passing by us should also be electric smart vehicles. They all feel very smart, and I heard they were perfected a long time ago. Why don't we see the group selling them?" Well, this is a very big profit-making project?"

"It is true that they are all smart vehicles, and they are very complete, but whether they will be sold depends on the current state of the world. Our technology is not one of those that are being tested. Once it is on the road, there may be dozens or millions of vehicles. , if the laws in this area are not perfect enough or the citizens' acceptance is not high enough, it will be difficult for us to do it. This time I happened to acquire your electric car company, how about I give you the technology and you can promote it? "

"...Well, let me think about it again. Maybe I prefer space. I saw a lot of humanoid robots along the way. The robot assistants here have already entered every household?"

"Of course, this is our employee benefit. Every employee has standard equipment at home. This is to enable them to work better without having to worry about home. When Arc Light Island is opened in the future, the talents recruited will also be equipped with it. But they are all basic versions, and you need to buy other versions. And the rich people who live in also need to buy, of course, they are not short of money to buy robots."

"...The benefits are really good, and this is too generous. No wonder Arc Light... No, it is our group that can develop so well. When will Arc Light Island be opened? I think it is almost completed?"

"I guess it won't be long. I don't know the details. It seems that the group plans to open it in batches. Now the two districts of the main city have been fully constructed and can be moved in at any time."

"...It's really leisurely. I don't have to manage these things. In my previous company, I had to take care of everything, otherwise my company would not survive."

"Haha, when you get here, you can just lead the team's research with peace of mind. You can not only realize your dream, but also bring huge benefits to the group. This is the model we determined from the beginning."

Although he said he would stop asking questions to prevent himself from becoming a country bumpkin, he started asking again after a while, because Arc Light Island does have this charm, and people can ask questions non-stop after arriving.

Everything here can satisfy people's fantasies about the science fiction world. The blue sky, green trees, fresh air, sci-fi architectural shapes, and white colors make people feel better when they look at them under the sunlight. Various styles of flying can be seen in the sky. device.

This is the kind of well-developed future world, not the depressing style of resource constraints, dystopia, or cyberpunk.

Suddenly coming from the ordinary modern living environment that I am familiar with to a place like this, I feel very unhappy if I don't ask the questions in my heart.

Especially Musk, as the journey progressed, he saw the Arc Light Group's aerospace research center, which was also the place he longed for most.

The closer he got, the more excited he became, and it did not disappoint him. He was simply dazzled by the sight.

He owns an aerospace company, and he knows all about it. Because he knows what is going on here, he is even more shocked.

He walked all the way from the model exhibition area at the door, and when he arrived at the Mars Project Laboratory of the scientific research center, he could no longer walk.

It can be said that standing here is the closest he has been to his dream of Mars, closer than when he stood next to his company's rocket before.

Dong Chen also understood what he was thinking, so he stayed here for a while to let him know more about the situation.

And due to the approaching Mars project and the last field trip, Dong Chen also learned a lot about things here, so he became Musk's commentator.

"...The construction work of this Mars spacecraft has reached the final stage. It should be undergoing final inspections now and will set off on February 21."

"This spacecraft that is about to carry out a mission to Mars does not have an official name yet, so the tentative name within the group is "Yuanhang 001". I plan to call it "Yuanhang". It is going to go a long way anyway, but The group doesn’t seem to agree.”

Dong Chen pointed to the 3D model and introduced it to Musk.

"This name is okay, but as humanity's first manned Mars spacecraft, isn't this name a little too common?" Musk said speechlessly.

"So don't we let them discuss it again?" Dong Chen said nonchalantly, "I don't care."

"It has a total length of 247 meters. When completed, it will be the largest autonomously powered space flight equipment owned by the group, and will also be the largest autonomously powered space flight equipment in the world."

"In order to save time, we use a straight main body with cabins connected one by one, and a rotating gravity simulation cabin like a "big pendulum" connected in a circle."

"It has ion engine technology with good performance, and the energy core is a controllable nuclear fusion device that we have successfully researched. It will take less than 20 days for this spacecraft to fly to Mars during the optimal landing window, even from the farthest distance. Hard steel can take up to half a year to arrive.”

"However, this type of spaceship is the first and will be the last. It will not be produced in the future."

The amount of information here was a bit large, which made Musk unable to react for a while, and also made him a little confused.

"Why only produce one such a good spaceship? We should produce a few more. With it, we humans will be able to launch flights to Mars, and then we will truly become a multi-planetary species."

After Musk stared at the 3D model and gave Dong Chen an opinion, he suddenly realized something was wrong and turned to look at Dong Chen in surprise.

"Wait a minute, with such a fast speed, it only takes 20 days to reach Mars? The farthest distance only takes half a year? Have you made any major breakthroughs in ion engine technology?"

"No, you also said controlled nuclear fusion? Oh my god! What did I hear?!"

"In that case, this spacecraft is simply a miracle in the history of human science!"

Musk's question was like a machine gun. After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Dong Chen's answer. Instead, he turned to look at the 3D spacecraft model again, then turned to Dong Chen and said firmly, "Mr. Chairman, Can I ask you something?"

"Uh...what's the matter? Why are you so polite all of a sudden?"

Dong Chen was a little confused by Musk's operation.

"I'm going to Mars!"

"Please add my name to this mission to Mars!"

"I can't wait to run towards my dream and ride on this miracle spaceship!"

Musk said with a solemn and sacred expression.

"Aren't you kidding me, Musk? You want to participate in the Mars mission?" Dong Chen asked in surprise.

"Of course, Mr. Chairman, I am absolutely sure that I am going to Mars!" Musk confirmed again.
